Two Texas women and a youth traveling with them were arrested Friday afternoon in Clark County after a state trooper recovered 46 pounds of marijuana from their vehicle, according to the Indiana State Police.

The women - 20-year-old Amanda Lucia Arellano, of Edinburg, Texas, and Irma Maldonado, 46, from an unknown Texas address - each were charged with three felonies: dealing marijuana over 10 pounds, possession of marijuana over 30 grams and maintaining a common nuisance.
